xI always play the A as a bar chord because it sounds better and makes the bridge way
easier to do (just slide up and down the frets). And the G# at the end of each line in the
verses only gets one strum; it’ll make sense if you listen to the song. All bar chords
are F#m, G, G#, and A

ADEAG#
So I turned tail and ran, and I know you're not my biggest fan
